I'm not reading this entire thread so this may have been tosses out there. The dude who started franchising Canes. A friend of mine said he saw him on a TV show about millionaires a few years ago. Owning a hot franchise can bring in all kinds of cash.

The Blossman family in Covington came to mind also. I don't know where they went to school but they gots all kinds of oil money, and oil money is good money.

Alfred C. Glassell Jr. would have been way up there.
